A great look of how the Cape Verdean people live

Published on Dec, 2024

Stopping by this house and eating fresh papaya. Going to Tarrafel beach and a nice dinner with Kefy. Then walking the beach. On the way home stopping for fresh coconut milk. After we ate the coconut.

Incredible tour

Published on Jun, 2024

The Santiago Island tour was just simply the best! And this was not only because of how much the island has to offer (a lot!), but equally as much because of the amazing guide. Ed is very attentive, genuinely friendly, easy going, knowledeable, and goes out of his way to make the experience an amazing one. A thousand thanks for this perfect day!!! Highly recommended, and will book again any time.

My day trip around Santiago

Published on Jan, 2024

Edmilson has been very kind and careful in driving me around the Island stopping any time I asked for. Also some places are not to miss on this day tour: Assomada, Tarrafal, Serra de Malagueta, Rabaledos village and all the glimpes of rural areas and people along the route. Do not forget to take a look at Pico de Antonia silhouette on the way back to Praia when the sun is about to set.

A very pleasant full day tour

Published on Oct, 2023

I had an exceptional tour, with an excellent guide, Edimilson, that made me discover the whole island in one day. Very cultivated, well educated and very experient.

Professional, Comprehensive and Fun

Published on Jun, 2023

Fabulous day-tour around the island with a dedicated, knowledgeable guide, Eddie. We completed a comprehensive circuit from Praia up to the north, then back south via the western side of the island. Eddie's English is superb and he does all he can to make the tour as interesting and exciting as possible. If you're planning to visit other islands, get in touch with Eddie or his colleagues to get the latest on inter-island travel options as they're hard to figure out from abroad.
